Bitcoin Dominance Declines as Markets Reach Fresh Highs

Bitcoin’s share of the overall cryptocurrency market has slipped below 60% for the first time since February. The drop comes as the entire crypto space pushes past the $4 trillion mark for the first time ever, setting a new milestone for the industry.

Pay attention!!

Big changes ahead. This is just the beginning. $BTC is in the same pattern of consolidation and pump, every time we see a good pump after every range bound.

White house officials said today that Bitcoin and crypto are going to $20 trillion.

At the time of writing, Bitcoin’s market value stands at roughly $2.39 trillion. While that’s still massive, Ether has been stealing some of the spotlight. The second-largest cryptocurrency has climbed past $4,600, playing a big part in pulling Bitcoin’s dominance lower. Interestingly, the last time Bitcoin had this small of a share, its price was still under $100,000.

It’s not just digital assets enjoying the rally. In the traditional market, the S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 ended the day at a new record high. And in the meantime, the U.S. dollar index (DXY) slipped below 98, a move that often gives riskier assets like stocks and cryptocurrencies a bit more room to run.

Investors are now nearly convinced that the Federal Reserve will lower interest rates at its September 17 meeting. If it happens, the benchmark rate would fall to somewhere between 4.00% and 4.25%. The latest inflation data gave mixed signals—the headline number was slightly softer than expected, but core inflation is still proving a bit stubborn.

Looking Ahead

For now, sentiment remains upbeat. A confirmed rate cut next month could give both crypto and stocks another push higher, but stubborn inflation means it won’t be a completely smooth ride. Traders will be watching every bit of economic data between now and the Fed meeting, knowing that any surprise could quickly change the tone of the market.
